What was the purpose of the last remodeling of the Dore Ahern Morris Bonifacio Welcome Area?
The building roofs were changed - what was the purpose of that?
Was there a technical reason or just the desire to make a change in appearance?
Why the change from plain ground at the sim junction to prim grass?
Why use prim grass when you can alter the RAW file and make perfectly flat ground with a grass texture?

On the whole, the changes were made to optimize the DAMB WA and make it "less laggy" for a better Resident experience. Textures were optimized, specifically textures with transparency were reduced and smaller textures are used to economize on memory usage. Some aesthetic changes were made too, just 'cuz it looks nice.
